10
11 % perl Makefile.PL
12 % make install
13
14The module is documented using pod. When you "make install", you
15will get a man-page: WWW::Robot. You can also generate HTML using pod2html:
16
17 % pod2html Robot.pm

19There is a simple example robot, poacher, in the examples/ directory of
20this distribution. Poacher is a basic site validation robot, mainly to
21illustrate use of the module.

23Please let me know if you experience any problems with this module,
24or have any ideas for additions.
